Final Report of the IMSD 2012 Stuttgart, Germany For more information www.itm.uni-stuttgart.de/imsd2012 1. Summary The Joint International Conference on Multibody System Dynamics (IMSD) was held at the Institute of Engineering and Computational Mechanics at the University of Stuttgart, Germany in May 29 - June 1, 2012. The IMSD conference is a biannual series that serves as a meeting point for the international Multibody community and as an opportunity to exchange high-level, current information on the theory and applications of Multibody systems. As a rapidly growing branch of mechanical dynamics, Multibody System Dynamics is seeing more and more use, and is becoming increasingly important in the development of complex engineered systems. The continual new challenges faced by the IMSD community demand productive conference forums where ideas are freely exchanged and a spirit of cooperation is encouraged. Overview of the Conference Besides seven distinguished keynote lectures, 56 technical sessions were held, offering 192 technical presentations authored by more than 450 authors. In total, 299 participants from 29 different countries participated in the IMSD 2012. The conference website can be found at: http://www.itm.uni-stuttgart.de/imsd2012 We would like to thank the following institutional sponsors for their highly appreciated support. ASME (American Society of Mechanical Engineers) IFToMM (International Federation for the Promotion of Mechanism and Machine Science) IUTAM (International Union of Theoretical and Applied Mechanics) JSME (Japan Society of Mechanical Engineers) KSME (Korean Society of Mechanical Engineers) We would like to thank the following industrial sponsors for their highly appreciated support. Alcatel-Lucent Carl Zeiss SMT ESTA Apparatebau FunctionBay GmbH Maplesoft Europe Robert Bosch GmbH SIMPACK The organization of the IMSD 2012 was supervised by an International Steering Committee consisting of the following distinguished academics.

It therefore provided the opportunity to also hold the IFToMM Technical Committee meeting at the conference. In addition, the IMSD 2012 also offered a social program. Besides the Welcome Session a Conference Reception was held in the courtyard of the Old Castle of Stuttgart, a visit of the Mercedes-Benz Museum was organized and the Conference Dinner was held in the Aquarium of the Stuttgart Zoo Wilhelma. 2. Conference Organization For the organization of the IMSD 2012 various deadlines were chosen. The abstract submission deadline was November 28, 2011. The abstract submission deadline was later extended to December 5, 2011. The notification of acceptance or rejection was sent out on January 23, 2012. The review process of the abstracts was organized by the session organizers. Based on their reviews the abstracts were distributed to the respective sessions for oral presentations. A small number of late submissions after the abstract submission deadlines were reviewed by the organizing conference staff. The submission of a full proceedings paper was on a voluntary basis. The deadline for submitting a full proceedings paper was March 19, 2012. The full proceedings papers were not further reviewed. 3. Conference Finances The conference was financed mainly through the registration fees of the participants. Some financial support was also provided by the industrial sponsors. Registration Fees before February 13, 2012 after February 13, 2012 Participant 390,00 Euro 440,00 Euro Accompanying Person 150,00 Euro 170,00 Euro The conference fee for participants included a book of abstracts, a USB flash drive of the conference proceedings, attendance at all scientific sessions, coffee breaks, lunches, welcome reception, visit at the Mercedes Benz museum and the conference dinner. The conference fee for accompanying persons covered the social events, i.e. visit at the Mercedes Benz museum and the conference dinner.
